A PEI prisoner’s drunken x-rated impersonation of cartoon character Cyril Sneer led to drug possession charges after his lively jig revealed illegal drugs tucked away in his rectum.

Police recently arrested Troy Kenneth Campbell in the middle of Charlottetown’s University Avenue dancing with a beer in one hand and a cheeseburger in the other, The Guardian reports. He was taken to the provincial correctional centre for public intoxication.

As guards readied him for time spent in a “dry cell,” which are used for prisoners suspected of having ingested illegal materials, Campbell asked guards if they had ever seen the cartoon character Cyril Sneer —a pink aardvark with a lengthy snout and the primary villian in the 80s Canadian children’s cartoon The Raccoons. Then, he tucked his penis between his legs, bent over and jumped up and down (apparently) pretending to be the evil industrialist. During his performance, guards spotted a piece of plastic protruding from his rear end. Perhaps sensing the guards’ suspicions, Campbell allegedly pulled the bag out and threw it across the cell.

The bag contained four hits of the narcotic Hydromorphone, used to ease severe pain. In a Charlottetown court on Monday, Campbell pleaded guilty to possession of the drug and was fined $700. He must also pay a $105 victims of crime surcharge.
